Great snow blower for lighter tasks

This is a great lightweight snow thrower for lightweight snow removal. I bought it as a backup to my gas-powered snowblower. I have a driveway that is approximately 2000 square feet. A week ago we had about 3 inches of light, fluffy snow, and it cleared it with ease. It was easier than using my gas snowblower and it cleaned the driveway better (right down to the asphalt). The batteries died before I had finished clearing the driveway, so I put in a new set. I finished the driveway and had 3 out of 5 battery power lights left on the second set.
Today, we had about 5 inches of more dense, compactable snow. It took three sets of batteries to complete the driveway with 2 lights remaining. It did not do well on the more compacted snow at the foot of the driveway left by the snow plow. I could have used it, but it would have eaten up a lot more battery power. I decided to use my gas-powered snow blower for that.
Conclusion: It is a great snow thrower for snow up to 5-6 inches (I have not tested it on deeper amounts). If the snow is light and fluffy, it works like a champ. If it is wet snow, it will handle it, but it will take more battery swaps. I highly recommend that you have two extra sets of batteries if you have a driveway like mine or at least one extra set for smaller driveways. Also, realize that when the batteries are depleted, they are warm and will not charge right away until cool.
Mechanical: I found the rotating handle to adjust the direction of the chut to be difficult to use, and after a few minutes of use, the pin slid out, and the handle became disconnected. I put the pin back in but decided not to use the handle. Instead, I just grabbed the chut body and rotated it. This was pretty easy to do, and, in fact, I found it easier than using the handle to rotate the chut. Other than that, I found the unit to be designed well. The handles fold easily for storage, and the unit is lightweight and can be carried using the handle.

Finally bought one and received the day before the snow hit this last year. Worked like a champ! Did my driveway and next door's driveway on one set of batteries. This replaced an old two cycle that was hard to start and you smelled like fuel when you were finished.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely love this blower! Just as strong as a gas blower and incredibly light (can lift with one hand). The only issue is being so light, sometimes it rides up on the snow so you have to angle it down sometimes. If you are on the fence on this one, buy it!

I'm very pleased with this cordless snow shovel. I also have the Worx snowblower which is much more capable for clearing snow on the driveway, but is too cumbersome for my backyard patio. This snow shovel works perfectly for that. Despite the small size it can really move snow -- sometimes a bit too much since it can throw snow into my neighbors yard if I don't aim it well.
It has some weight to it, but it's not hard to deal with. Battery life of the 4Ah packs is very good, but it will also take the 8Ah packs if extended run time is needed. Very pleased with it (but would be even more pleased if it didn't snow!)
I would recommend this to a friend!
